Here's an excerpt of Bob Cesca's live blogging of the GOP convention: Pure comedy gold!

Dagnabbitt. They pushed my work trip until 09/24.

QUOTE (Disco72 @ Sep 2, 2008 -> 02:25 PM) FWIW, Fiorina knows something about executive decision-making and glass ceilings. Too bad for McCain he didn't choose her instead.

QUOTE (Athomeboy_2000 @ Sep 2, 2008 -> 02:21 PM) I've decided that i will no long attack Palin. According to the mcCain campaign, if I do, I'm sexist. And since I'm not, i dont want to be thought of as sexist. How sexist of him!

QUOTE (Athomeboy_2000 @ Sep 2, 2008 -> 01:22 PM) McCain Campaign Manager Rick Davis: "This election is not about issues. This election is about a composite view of what people take away from these candidates." Unreal.

I took the Blue Line to work today and it was fine. I take it towards O'Hare and get off at Cumberland (2 stops before O'Hare).

Now I find out that they don't want me in KC on Monday the 22nd. I'm going to try and convince them to send me on the 18th so that I could catch the Friday game of the series.

I'll be flying in to KC on 09/21 for work on Monday. I'm thinking of getting an early flight that Sunday so I could catch the game that afternoon. Anyone else plan on going to the game? Maybe I can meet a fellow Soxtalker.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Sep 2, 2008 -> 08:47 AM) So Palin has been worth 3 points so far? There's already rumors of them dropping her off the ticket.

Final season of The Shield starts tonight. I've read great reviews for this season.

QUOTE (Heads22 @ Sep 2, 2008 -> 08:57 AM) All I know is that if Barack Obama advocated any state to secede, even Alaska, he'd be painted everything from unAmerican to a terrorist.... You can't fault the GOP here. They just want to replace Alaska with Iraq as our 50th state. No harm no foul.

QUOTE (farmteam @ Sep 1, 2008 -> 08:50 PM) False. Pineapple Express was decent but not that great, but Tropic Thunder was one of the best movies I saw this summer. Actually, of all the movies I saw this summer, Dark Knight and Tropic Thunder were far and away the best two. Though Forgetting Sarah Marshall was also pretty good. Since when is someone's opinion considered false?

Griffey goes deep twice.

Happy birthday sir!

Nice. Apparently the shadows don't help our pitchers.

Griffey trade much worse than I could have imagined. He's been awful.
